Kodak Super 8 Camera
The Kodak Super 8 camera isn’t generally known, but the footage released at CES 2018 is very interesting. I summarized the current situation, including the Kodak film camera update.

Recent video equipment claims to improve the image quality of 4K and 8K, but
this time Kodak announced a new product of 8mm film camera!
Its name is ” Super 8 Camera
Besides, this film camera has an SD card slot and a USB port on the back, an HDMI port, and a digital viewfinder, so it’s quite a modern specification.
Can this be used?
I reported on the Kodak Super 8 camera at CES 2016 earlier, but I was wondering if it would be commercialized. However, at this 2018 CES, the actual video was released, so it seems that it is steadily approaching realization. Film filming has been declining over the last few decades, but with the help of Hollywood directors and officials, Kodak seems to be steadily improving.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about this camera is its ease of use. A new generation of filmmakers and V-loggers shooting on DSLRs will be reminded of shooting on Super 8 film. When you send the film you’ve shot to Kodak, the company uploads a digital file to the Kodak Darkroom website, where you can download the footage and load it into NLE.
Despite its retro design, it has a 3.5-inch LCD monitor, variable speed, and a C-mount. C-mount lenses are relatively affordable; you can get vintage ones for under $100.
Kodak has also posted a podcast in which product manager Holger Schwaerzel and program director Steve Parsons discuss the new features and challenges of the Kodak film camera.
